TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:

Be it known that I, MANUEL J. VIEIRA, of Mendota,-in the county of La Solle, and State of Illinois, have invented a, new and useful Improvement in Liquids for Cleansing the Hair; and I do he eby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the same. I

The object of this composition is to provide a liquid which may be used as a. wash in shnmpooin'g the hair without resorting to the use of water to remove the shitmpooing liquid after it has been applied.

In compounding this preparation take seven and a half (7%) ounces of alcohol or cologne spirits, also seven (7) ounces of soft wet-er. Cut six (6) drnchms of castor'oil with two drnchms of alcohol, add two (2) ounces of aqua. ammonia, and shake well to incorporate the ingredients. Any perfume maybe added, according to taste.

The liquid thus compounded is applied by rubbing enough into the hair to make it good lather. Then scratch the head thoroughly to clean the scalp, by which timethe lather will have disappeared. Then rub with a towel until the hair is dry enough to dress.

What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

A composition of a liquid for use in shampooing the hair, compounded from the ingredient 'ssubstnntinlly as set forth In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.

MANUEL J. VIEIRA.
